The Lord’s Prayer is the Bible verse that we all know well.
This is a beautiful sample of the prayer in German on a wax form. My Oma gave it to me. Today, it is one of my treasured items along with many things
that make me smile and help me remember her.
~~~~~
Mathew 6:9-13
Our Father, which art in heaven,
Hallowed be thy Name.
Thy Kingdom come.
Thy will be done in earth,
As it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
As we forgive them that trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
But deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom,
The power, and the glory,
For ever and ever.
Amen.
My Oma, German for Grandma, always appreciated beautiful things like this embroidered
handkerchief. I wonder if she ever really used it. She probably just admired it, as I do.
What do you hold near and dear, and does it inspire you to write or photograph it?
Thank you for stopping by! Comments welcome.
Happy Easter, and God Bless.

What a lovely photo, especially with the embroidered hankie afterwards. Solitude and yet not alone. God bless and a joy filled Easter.

I love the Lords Prayer. I especially like embroidered hanky from your Oma. I still have my moms hankies. And a few that she purchased for me during my childhood. Several have little girl themes. We both are blessed to have ties to a forgotten
era of womens fashion.
